Abstract
Thin-walled circular cylindrical shells are used in many civil engineering applications. Any initial geometric imperfections and the type of applied load determine the buckling and the post buckling of cylindrical thin-walled shell structures. Fourteen thin-walled cylindrical shell models in two groups (labelled without CFRP and with CFRP) with different dent directions (H= horizontal, V= vertical and D= 45° diagonal direction) and dent depths (2tc and 4tc) subjected to external pressure were tested in the present research (tc is the thickness of the cylindrical shell). The results of testing under different theories and codes are compared. Moreover, the results are identified and investigated in the present experimental research.
